WoW Gold Farmers Arrested

Is it necessary to arrest? What's the big deal with buying gold? I pay and I get enough for my epic mount without having to countless hours on farming gold. it's ok for both of side. Why stop? What need to stop is that the dev should stop to make the game grind, a time killer a life killer.

Anyone who has ever played a MMORPG hates these type of people, Gold/Money farmers are simply a plague on all online games that does need to be dealt with. I know this won't send a message to anyone to stop doing it, however if they can knock out enough of these operations the economies of these games might actually begin to return to normal!

You ruin the game. Just uninstall and never think of WoW ever again. I hope your account gets banned. It's not hard to earn gold, via dailies, playing the AH, or other ways, you don't need to devout your life to the game to get far. And you dont need to buy gold.

Whats worse than Gold Farmers are the idiots keeping them in business.

Heres a few reasons why gold farming is a big deal...

1. In low lvl areas where a high value item drops you will often have these GF`s running about using bot programs. Which steal Npc`s halting the real players progression.

2. If gold is readily available then why not make even simple items cost silly amounts of gold? I.e people putting things on AH`s at 200-300% markup because they know some idiot who buys gold and has a huge disposable income will pay it. Normaly for a crafted Epic or item that is laffable compared to other in game gear.

3. GF`s have been known to hold accounts to ransom, loggin on to a stolen account and demanding gold from guild mates / friends in order for the real player to get there character back.

4. GF`s also log accounts and melt down epic/items into gold and of course mail any gold on the character away to there banks.

Also read the TOS. It says quiet clearly that the selling of or buying of in game items is strictly prohibited under REAL world terms.

God I hate Gf`s and worse still lo-post-count-gold-buying-nabcakes!

Seriously. My friend just hit 70 a week ago, spent all his 800 gold on an awesome AH deal rather than a flying mount, and had his flying mount 2 days later. Dailies get you money extremely fast.

I actually applaud the gold-farmers, I mean these guys make real world money running around getting digital gold in a digital game. We live in a world where you create your own markets, products and services through innovation, filling a niche, or greater efficiencies. These guys have found a way to fill one of those needs and if ppl want to pay so be it.

I have never used the service and I personally dont think I have been impacted by any of them on the Darth'remar server at least. The auction house is to some degree much like real-life alot of it is supply and demand based, there are times when I have been dumbfounded by the cost of things and other times when I have been surprised at how cheap they have been. Much the same as in real-life. And no I have never used the service, however, reserve the self-instigated right to at my own discretion.

I think these Gold farmers are only annoying to the people that've taken an obsession into this game. I played it until about Level 45 and I never even saw/heard of a Gold farmer. I took the whole game with a pinch of salt. So should everyone else.

It's just fun. Nobody cares how much money you have or what weapons you've got. Just ignore it all and play. You don't NEED the ultimate of everthing.

Except it's against the rules. That's like saying you applaud drug dealers, because they created a market, grow there own product, and distribute sell the product to fill a need.

I thought your WoW girlfriend got arrested... haha :rofl:

Man that is exactly what I thought when I read it.. I was expecting to come see some post or video of some wow player getting his butt handed to him by his girlfriend..

lmao.. now that I think of it, it reminds me of all the people who say wow players don't have girlfriends so of course GF couldnt stand for Girlfriend.. LOL!!

Sorry I just had to cut down the bull**** points:

1. Negative, most quest areas are a haven for players. It increases downtime while they level their bots. They are alts. Bots follow basic routines they don't do quests (well, yet).

2. People are greedy. They think time invested to make the item (all three seconds of hitting 'craft') equals a massive mark up. Buy the components separately.

3. Negative, most can barely grasp English, let alone type it. You find that'll be your common script kiddie.

4. This has yet to be proven. Now being an officer in a guild I find most 'hacking' comes from shared accounts when one idiot ****es another idiot off and they shard all their items and blame it on a Gold Farmer.

Not that I approve of gold farmers. I just feel the real world situation is far less dramatic than people make out. But saying that most of you know to take things you read online with a massive pinch of salt.

I thought that at first, then I realised what I was thinking. WoW and 'girlfriend' don't exactly go together.

    • Microsoft will soon allow some users to block Copilot from analyzing their Office files by Usama Jawad Microsoft Purview is a pretty useful data governance, security, and management service that allows customers to gain enhanced visibility and control over their content. It's meant for commercial customers, such as organizations that are storing data at scale. As AI continues to expand and infiltrate every corner of a firm, many are a bit conscious about the technology gaining access to their confidential data. Microsoft is now making a configuration change that will allow such customers to rest easy. Right now, users within an organization have the option to apply Purview sensitivity labels (when available) to secure certain files and label them as such. For example, if you apply the "Confidential" label on an Excel file, the file will be encrypted, and a "confidential" watermark will be applied to it. So, if this file is shared with anyone, they are aware that its access is supposed to be restricted. Up until now, Microsoft was allowing some connected experiences, like its AI services, to analyze files, regardless of their sensitivity label. This is of major concern to most organizations, as a recent example highlighted how confidential emails with data loss prevention (DLP) policies like privacy labels were being uploaded to Copilot for analysis. As such, Microsoft is updating an existing Purview data label sensitivity setting that prevents "some connected experiences that analyze content", from being blocked completely from doing this. The label isn't changing, but the blocking is now being enforced across all connected services (including Copilot and other AI tools), and now extends to Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. Files with the label applied already will get this enhancement automatically too once it becomes available. Microsoft has urged IT admins to inform their respective helpdesk and compliance teams, update internal documentation, and review sensitivity labels to ensure that they meet their respective compliance needs. This change is tagged as MC1297982 in the Message Center. General availability is scheduled to begin in a phased manner soon and will complete by the end of next month. That said, it is important to note that this only applies to commercial customers who have a license that allows them to use Purview.

    • All versions is correct. The bug appears on any version of Windows with KB5094126 installed. It's a little insane to expect the author to explain that systems that can't possibly have that patch installed, will not experience the bug. If you have any gripe about the title, it would be that it doesn't mention the update at all, but I wouldn't agree with that either. A title is not expected to be a full summery of the article.
